I recall suggesting this when working in local gubmint a few years ago, you'd have thought I was asking for people to sacrifice their firstborn to pagan gods!!

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
I am now the proud non owner of a duplex. All signed off, but I suppose all the other parties could drop dead, go insane, whatever before I bank the proceeds tomorrow.
There, that was anti-climactic wasn't it.

That's exactly what I do, get as much air as you can out of the bag and if some of the meat is sticking above the water put a saucepan of water on top to weight it down.
Make sure you refrigerate it as soon as it's thawed, if you aren't cooking it straight away.

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
I put frozen meat in a heavy cast iron skillet, and it thaws out quicker than on the counter. There was a ribbed pan advertised on television years ago for thawing meat out fast, but when tested it worked no better than a cast skillet. I thaw kippers out in the sink.

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
Congratulations Bristol! I'd been imagining all sorts
Europe here you come...perhaps....
My husband has invited people to dinner at the weekend...I presently have no kitchen as we've knocked the kitchen wall down and have plaster dust in every orifice....running away from home seems a sensible option.

My ex once started refitting (I.e. Demolished) my kitchen 2 days before overseas visitors arrived for Christmas/NY stay... I gave a 3 hour ultimatum for him to sort it out, or Else...
